Capitalist Countries

Capitalism is an economic system where the means of production is controlled by private business. This means that individual citizens run the economy without government interfering in production or pricing. Instead, pricing are set by the free market. This means that value is based on supply and demand and the relationship between producers and consumers.

The 59 countries listed below are considered “Capitalist Countries” even if some of their industries are owned, controlled, regulated or taxed by government. Economic Freedom is determined by the extent of this control.
